Pineapple Chicken Fajitas
Suggested romance: Serve with sour cream, shredded cheddar cheese, salsa and toasted almonds. Honey and pineapple add a sweet twist to these fajitas that my family loves. I like to serve them with coleslaw and baked or fried potatoes. —Raymonde Bourgeois, Swastika, Ontario

We love this dish...one of my wife’s favorites
My husband and I were not impressed with this. I made the recipe as-is (no substitutes). We found the flavor to be very mild, almost like it was watered down. Maybe that's because I never drained the chicken? It never stated to do so, so I didn't. The flavor we could taste was good, we just wanted more of it. I'm not sure I'd make this again since there are other fajita recipes we liked better, but if I do I'd try it as others suggested with using pineapple juice and I'll probably drain the chicken.
I made fajitas for the first time ever and I'm certainly happy I found this recipe! Absolutely delicious! I did use pineapple juice instead of water, but no other changes. Thanks for the recipe??
My husband and I really enjoyed these fajitas. After reading the reviews, I also used pineapple juice instead of water...yum! I will definitely make them again!
I made this for the first time tonight. I also added the pineapple juice instead of the water. It was excellent! My husband and I loved it!
Used pineapple juice instead of water. So yummy!
Finally got around to trying this recipe tonight! The pineapple & honey added a subtle sweet flavor. ~A nice diversion to typical fajitas. :) Excited to substitute the water with pineapple juice next time! Thanks for the idea!
My husband and I absolutely love this recipe, especially prepared with the low fat spanish rice recipe. We do substitute pineapple juice for the water to make it even more mouth watering. Pair it with low carb whole wheat tortillas to make it extra healthy!
Excellent.
I didn't have fajita seasoning so found a recipe on the internet that used spices that I have on hand. Turned out excellent! Even my youngest ate every last bite!
